COSY CARDIO 👟 My favourite habit I started in 2025…definitely bringing it into 2026 with me! A home treadmill…my nightly(ish) ritual. It’s amazing how many chats and TV shows you can catch up on during a little indoor walk 😆 *Sings* *productivityyyyyy

SNAP 🎞️ Got this toy camera to test as a potential Christmas present for my nieces & nephews…but it’s my shoe camera now 😂 sorry kids! 👞

TREADMILL DIARIES 👟☕️ Finally found my exercise of choice! Walking inside with a brew 😍🫖 Adele got us this treadmill ages ago but we finally got it out this week and I think I’ve done more steps in 5 days than I have done all year 😂 Tonight, I strolled round a wintry Manhattan, stayed safe & warm (indoors!), listened to beautiful music and all while our tea was cooking! I’ll think of a better name than “walking inside with a brew” BUT this form of movement is legitimately changing my life 🤩 obsessed.

INDOOR WALKS ARE ON! ❄️☕️ we’ve had this for ages but finally pulled it out from under the sofa today! Obsessed. First thoughts: LOVE that I can get my steps in without going out into the cold, wet, horror of outside (staying in is my favourite!). Love that I feel safe now it’s getting darker (and weirder!) out there. Love that I can watch tv, read or listen to a book or podcast which I’d be doing anyway and be exercising at the same time. Love that it’s very quiet and it folds down slim enough for the very small gap under the sofa. I did feel a bit wobbly on it at first but I get vertigo so I think it was that - Adele had a full run on it & she was absolutely fine. I think this might be my new winter office 😍

So annoyed I haven’t been wearing this allllll summer long. Really lovely silhouette & a beautiful cut. I don’t know why but it feels a bit Western, a bit prairie and a bit Dawson’s Creek (which are all obviously GREAT attributes). I got it in a size 8 and it’s true to size. The belt is removable too so you can switch it out with another. On sale now too!

Sydney fit check 🇦🇺 loved this outfit for a day walking around the city. The perfect white shirt & comfiest trousers 👌

#LTKuk #LTKsummer #LTKeurope

Off to sea today 🌊 love both of these summer dresses - one of my fave silhouettes.

FEELING BLUE 🩵💙 how many versions of this dress do I need? Answer = all of them! The perfect summer dress - casual & cool (& affordable!) enough for everyday but can also be styled up for weddings, evenings & even race day. I’m wearing a size 8.

THE VALENTINO RESCUE 👠 Our landlord doesn’t allow pets…so I rescue shoes instead 😜 favourite preloved Vinted find of the year so far & a lovely reminder that clothes & shoes are tougher than we think with a little extra care & help! Definitely worth the rescue mission! Also, how beautiful is Kokos Shoe Repair😍?? A wonderful family business and they did such a good job with my new-to-me shoes!! A pair of Valentino’s all for less than the cost of a high street pair 👏 …and a great way to get my steps in for the day 😆

First picnic of the year! ☀️ new book, new cool box, new blanket, very old & trusted swimsuit! 😬 I’m so picky about swimwear & I always go back to this one when I just want to feel comfortable - great coverage all over and it stays put if you let the neckties down to get a nice tan :) So glad they brought this colourway back, it’s the best! (I’m wearing a size 8 regular in this - Adele is wearing size 8 regular in her other style). Here’s to many more al fresco summer moments!

THE 60s SET 🩵 new life for this vintage 1960s two piece I found on eBay! I’ve linked some similar sets…how amazing is the reversible one?!? I find the trick with these is to look for a 3/4 length sleeve on the jacket as it keeps it looking elegant & less like a power suit 😆 and adding some unexpected accessories (like my lil’ socks) can bring the look up to date. #vintage #preloved

MAMMA MIA! 🪡🧵
A while ago I bought this little 1960s twin set from a seller on eBay who was cleaning out his mum’s wardrobe & wanted her clothes to go to good use. She had amazing style 😍 I love knowing what I’m wearing has already lived a life - and imagining where it might have taken its previous owner! - & has been chosen & worn with love ☺️ I took it for a spin down Bond Street for its first outing with me…here’s to more adventures! I’ve found some similar ones which I’ll link in my next post 😘 #vintage #preloved

#LTKuk #LTKeurope #LTKluxury

I live in this dress now…it’s my ADDRESS 😂 a little vintage look this time. Really nice for a wedding guest outfit or race day look. Also great if you’re not a huge fan of colour…just adding the little touches of the bag, brooch & details on the gloves still gives a black dress a summery feel. Bag is old Mansur Gavriel, gloves are vintage (I’ve linked some nice similar ones but the embroidered ones are hard to come by - try Vinted & Etsy too!) and brooch is vintage (also linked some nice ones on eBay but Vinted is a good place for affordable ones!). Shoes are old Karen Millen.

LWSD (Little White Summer Dress) ☀️ The white version of the black dress I’ve been banging on about 😆 I *might* have it coming in blue too! Love this one - it is a teeny bit see-through (only slightly) so nude underwear is a must and I used a little bit of white sports tape on ‘top’ area (I use this stuff a lot in summer for white tops & dresses!). Brooch is vintage (I’ve linked a similar one on EBay but have a look on Vinted & Etsy too!). I’m wearing size 8 & it’s true to size!

#LTKsummer #LTKdresses #LTKuk

LBSD (Little Black Summer Dress!) ☀️ New favourite dress! Already worn this SO many times in so many different ways…I’m calling this look “Moody Tennis” 🖤🎾 😬 I’m wearing size 8 & it’s true to size. So good I’ve just got it in white this morning & they’ve now added a lovely blue (ordered 😁) & beige to its repertoire! (Sunglasses are old Reserved, Visor is very old Primani & brooch is vintage (I’ve linked a similar one I found on eBay but have a look on Vinted & Etsy too!).

#LTKuk #LTKdresses #LTKsummer

New favourite dress! So good I’ve ordered it in white too 😍 It’s a really similar cut & silhouette to the dress I wore to the Royal Garden Party but much more affordable for knocking about in all summer! :) I’m wearing a size 8 & its true to size 💕 first purchase from PLT & I’m really impressed with the quality of this 🤩 such a versatile one, sneakers for day & heels for night, could be a really nice wedding guest outfit too or even one for race day with a showstopper hat (which I’m planning on trying out! Incoming 😄).

A PRELOVED BAFTAS 🏆 This year’s BAFTA dress code was ‘Sustainable Style’ - I found this gorgeous Montsand dress on Reliked (via eBay) but there were MANY more contenders for best dress in my online shopping basket 😬🛒 I’ve linked all the other preloved & Vintage red carpet dresses I was (and still am!) considering. #preloved #sustainable #ebayuk #vintage #ebayfinds

Another swimwear fave. Sporty bikini, comfortable & I LOVE the stripes & colour. Good bum & modesty coverage 👌

#LTKuk #LTKsummer #LTKswimwear

ROYAL BLUE 🩵🤍 Had the most beautiful day at the Royal Garden Party. Also…I think I live in this dress now. Please forward any mail on to it. 😆 This dress was an…INVESTMENT 🤑…a belated birthday present and pretty much the dress of my dreams…but I had my eye on some similar alternatives in case I couldn’t get it in time which I’ve linked below too. I’m wearing a size uk8. Perfect look for a wedding guest or race day/ladies day. The hat is DIY - I’ve posted the vid on how to make it too. 😘 #RalphsHamptons #LTKxRalphLauren

#LTKwedding

Hope this helps anyone off to the races Ladies’ Day or as a wedding guest this summer! I wore mine to The Royal Garden Party ☕️🍰👑

I went into Fortnum's a few weeks ago & discovered that nice hats cost the price of a small yacht.
and Id probably use a yacht more
So I decided to make one - very easy DIY hat/fascinator/hatinator :)

I will NEVER not take this swimsuit on holiday with me. Had it for years & it’s stood the test of time (and pools, oceans & washing machines!). Great bum coverage, nice modest coverage on front too. A winner. I wear a size 8 regular

Tokyo Marathon Friendship Run 5k. Hot one but a fun one! (I can’t believe I just called running ‘fun’. Who am I?

GOING ONCE…👨‍⚖️🖼️ …and I’d go again! Lovely night at Christie’s for The Terrence Higgins Trust Auction. Perfect dress - it gives Mary Poppins in the Hunger Games. Which is what we all want, I think.
